Badlands is the debut studio album by the band of the same name. This album features Ray Gillen and Eric Singer, who previously played together in Black Sabbath. This album also features guitarist Jake E. Lee and bassist Greg Chaisson. Singer later played on Chaisson’s solo album It’s About Time. The album had sold 400,000 copies by 1990, according to Chaisson, in a Hit Parader interview from that year. It was also ranked No. 35 in Rolling Stone‘s list of 50 Greatest Hair Metal Albums of All Time.
The album features the song “Dreams in the Dark”, which the group released as a single and music video.
Kirk Blows, reviewer of British music newspaper Music Week, named LP as “accomplished and worthy debut” and praised its diversity. Billboard called this record “a collection of well-crafted tunes that should jump out of the radio and sound great live.”
